Chargers Kicker Nick Novak Takes a Pee on the Sidelines (Picture)

Sometimes when you gotta go, you gotta go. We have had the discussion about athletes going to the bathroom during a game a couple times over the past few months here at LBS, but those were incidents that took place in private. A Mets player nearly missed an at-bat once when he was in the can and Rafael Nadal upset his opponent by taking a bathroom break in the middle of a match. Perhaps both of those guys should take a page out of Chargers kicker Nick Novak’s book and just do their business out in the open. Check out this picture of Nick Novak peeing during Sunday’s game against the Broncos like it ain’t no thing:

Gotta love the assist from the trainer with the towel on that play. He came up clutch when the team needed him most, and for that we salute him. In a tight game like the one between the Chargers and Broncos — one that Tebow of course prevailed in — you don’t have time to go to the locker room and certainly can’t be attempting a game-winning kick with urine in your bladder. Sometimes there’s just no choice in life but to go. Maybe the Chargers should invest in some tents like Auburn to mask it.
